lyricist for hire. really, please hire me.
not related to the song i was posting about before. just a thought i had to jot down before it was lost. https://squidgeimages.s3.us-west-002.backblazeb2.com/2026/03/25/IMG_8610.jpeg
and for screen readers, "the sun peeking through the blinds isnt half as harsh as the look in her mates bulbs when i catch his burning gaze."
my favorite songwriter does this thing in one of my favorite songs of his. that i wish i could pull of with even half the efficacy as he does. but the first time the chorus plays, we hear the "call" half of a call-and-response, but we dont hear the response until the second time the chorus comes around. i think the build up and pay off to it is very satisfying.
do i love spicy food? absolutely. is my spice tolerance decent? not at all. but can my acid tract at least handle it? also no. but it is noble to suffer for the things we love.
everyone had really kind things to say, and honestly it was pretty encouraging. i figured out the chorus after i managed to cool down. i think im happy with it. theres only a few more wrinkles to smooth out before i would call the whole thing done.
after that. uh. its just a matter of getting someone with actual musical ability to pick it up.
my face is burning up. im going to go dunk my head under some running water. or something.
this feels way more embarrassing than i thought it would. fighting the urge to just delete.

I understand, dear. And it's oookay if it doooes. But it's sooo impooortant that yooou tooooook the first step in putting yooourself ooout there and finding kindred spirits! That's part ooof living life tooo its fullest :)!
sorry about my handwriting. actually, on second thought, maybe i should just type this out for screen readers and legibility anyway... i cant buy lipstick / in my favorite shade / there are no cosmetics / in the color of your hate black could never be so deep / no gloss ever match the sheen / two rich hues smeared between / hate-torn lips, my tongue, your teeth https://squidgeimages.s3.us-west-002.backblazeb2.com/2026/03/24/mal_lyrics.jpg
oooh! can i come up with a bass instrumental for this?
love the poetry content, instant follow fr
just read the bio, lyrics are poetry all the same and fully obsessed w/ this
feel free. i dont have an ounce of talent for instruments. i would really like to hear what you come up with.
im glad that i could write something that resonated with at least a handful of trolls. hopefully i have the time and the guts to post more like this in the near future.
